1. Xinit 1.4.1
Can anyone expain why we have to use the parameter
"--with-xinitdir=/etc/X11/app-defaults" for Xinit?
That's because I find that the folder "/etc/X11/app-defaults/xinitrc.d" is not created while some
applications will install thier "sh" files to "/etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d". As a result, those
"sh" files will not be read by Xinit program.
Hmm. I do not have a /etc/X11/xinit/xinitrc.d directory. Which
packages do that?
2. Qt
The instruction "cat >> /etc/ld.so.conf << EOF" can be changed to "cat >
/etc/ld.so.conf.d/qt5.conf".
In general, the directory.d construct is for distros that want to use
their package management systems to just drop in a file. We don't need
to do that and it is a lot simpler to just look at /etc/ld.so.conf to
see what is there.
3. KDE Frameworks 5 Pre-installation Configuration
In the section "Installing in /opt", I think the follow lines are missing for the file
"/etc/profile.d/qt5.sh":
pathappend /usr/lib/qt5/plugins QT_PLUGIN_PATH
pathappend /usr/lib/qt5/qml QML2_IMPORT_PATH
Those are covered in the kf5 Pre-installation in the section "Installing
in /usr"
Also, it is better to add the following line in the "sh" file:
pathappend $QT5DIR/plugins/kcms QT_PLUGIN_PATH
That's because KDE application "sytemsetting5" will report "the plugin kcm_xxxxxx
was not found" if the above setting is not set.
I do not see how that PATH entry will change things. In my qt5
directory there is no file or directory with kcm in the qt5 install
tree. I think this may be plasma specific.
